Feeling tired, flat in the gym, or struggling to recover?
It might not just be stress, it could be low protein or low vitamin B12.
These two nutrients work closely together to support energy, brain function, muscle strength, and metabolism.
Protein helps:
• build and repair muscle
• stabilise blood sugar
• reduce cravings
• support immune function
• keep you fuller for longer
Vitamin B12 helps
• support energy production ⚡
• maintain healthy nerves and brain function 🧠
• form red blood cells
• improve concentration and mood
• prevent fatigue and weakness
Low B12 is especially common if you:
• skip animal protein
• eat very little red meat
• follow a mostly vegetarian pattern
• feel unusually tired despite sleeping well
A simple check: aim for 20–30 g protein per meal, and include regular B12-rich foods like eggs, dairy, fish, chicken, or lean red meat.
Small daily nutrition shifts can make a big difference to how you feel.
Energy starts with what’s on your plate 🍽️✨
